# User impact after replacing app

### What happens to existing app users after replacing your live app with an AppMySite-built app?

Replacing your live app with the one you create on AppMySite ensures a seamless transition for your app users. They can simply update the app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store to access the new version.

* Your AppMySite app will replace the existing app on the app stores, making it available for users to update at the click of a button.
* Once updated, users will experience the new version of your app without requiring a fresh installation.
* No user data will be lost in the process, ensuring a smooth upgrade experience.
